The Henderson SKg 8 Lawn Mower 



THE KING OF LAWN MOWERS 



DURABLE SELF-ADJUSTING DRAW CUT ALWAYS SHARP 



LEAVES THE LAWN SMOOTH AND FREE FROM CORRUGATION 



LIGHT RUNNING NOISELESS 



DOES NOT PULL THE GRASS 



THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING MOWER has high drive wheels, 

 large, open non-clogging cylinder. The spiral of the knives is correctly 

 proportioned to give a continuous cut, leaving the lawn as smooth as if 

 shaved entirely free from the corrugated surface left by other Mowers. 

 The handles are braced and reinforced to prevent twisting and breaking 

 when one side of the Mower is held off the ground, and besides the handle 

 is equipped with improved "grips" which keeps the hands in a natural 

 position, gives more power, and is less tiresome than a continued grasp, 

 with wrists twisted, on a horizontal grip. 



THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN MOWER is made without 

 regard to cost — to be the best, most durable, and the easiest-working Mower 

 on the market, and while the prices are necessarily a little higher than those 

 of Mowers simply made to sell, yet in the end our Mower will prove much 

 cheaper, aside from annoying delays and repairs experienced with cheap 

 Mowers. It is superior to all other Mowers in the following respects: The 

 axles of the revolving cutter, like the axles of a bicycle, work in self-adjusting 

 "ball-bearing" journal boxes or cups, which reduces the friction enormously. 

 The Mower is also built scientifically correct in other respects. The "draw- 

 cut" principle corrects the defect in "push cut" Lawn 

 Mowers, and completely reverses the old way of cutting the 

 grass. The grass is drawn across the sharp edge of the Stati- 

 onary Knife, which is the cutting knife, and is severed most 

 easily, causing the mower to operate much more easily. It 

 also prevents the mower from "bobbing up" in the rear, 

 thus insuring an even cut. The heavier the grass, the closer 

 the mower clings to the turf. It makes the mower self-sharp- 

 ening; the drawing of the wiper blades across the edge of 

 the stationary knife keeps it always sharp and prevents 

 gouging. Where the "push cut" style of mower requires 

 "sharpening" a dozen times, the Henderson Ball-Bearing 

 "drawcut" mower will not need it once. It is a strictly 

 high class Mower, made from the highest quality of iron 

 and steel. The castings are lathe-turned and bored, and 

 the journals machine-trimmed, which insures trueness in fitting 

 and smoothness in working, with no irregularities to wear 

 off and leave rattle and play. We have so simplified the 

 adjustments in our new Ball-Bearing Mower that even those 

 ignor.int of mechanics will have no trouble in always keeping 

 our Mower in fine cutting order for years and the lawn in 

 uninjured condition. 



PRICES FOR THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN 

 MOWERS. 



(Strictly net; no charges for packing or cartage.) 



Five-Bl&ded. Eight-Bladed. Grass Catcher. 

 16-inch cut. . . $12.00 $14.00 Extra, $3.00 



18-inch cut. .. 13.00 16.00 Extra, 3.25 



21-inch cut. . . 14.00 18.00 Extra, 3.50 



Note. — We can supply these mowers either with five or 

 eight blades, but always send the five-bladed mower unless 

 otherwise ordered. The eight-bladed mower cuts finer, can 

 be set to mow close to ground, and is extensively used on 

 putting-greens, but it runs a little harder than the five-bladed 

 mower. 



GRASS CATCHERS for the Henderson "Ball-Bearing" 

 Lawn Mowers of superior heavy duck; bottom of galvanized 

 iron that will not sag or drag on the ground when filled; they 

 are quickly attached, removed or dumped. (For prices, see 

 above.) 



THE HENDERSON 



£££% "Putting-Green" Mower 



Eighl-blnded — Close, Smooth Cutting — Easy Running 

 For "Putting-Greens" the Hendrrs'in 8-hladed Ball-Bearing Lawn 

 Mower is Superior to any "Side-Wheel" Mower Made 

 We offer this mower to Golf Clubs as the very best side- 

 wheel mower ever devised for smooth, close work on putting- 

 greens. It has an eight-bladed revolving cutter working in 

 ball-bearings and speeded high, thus leaving the cut surface 

 of the "green" absolutely free from corrugations, and almost 

 as smooth as a billiard table. The knives can be set so low that they will fairly shave the ground if desired ; though on a level, well-rolled green, with close, 

 fine turf, a quarter to a half-inch clip leaves the surface in the nicest condition for putting. A well-known instructor and greenkeeper says: "It is the best 

 mower for putting-greens that I have ever seen either in this country or in Scotland. It cuts the turf so short and even that it is like pulling on a carpet." 



Henderson's "Putting-Green" Mower is a thoroughly high-grade machine, carefully built of finest material, the knives especially being of finest 

 steel. It runs easy, considering the number of knives and fine cut. Guaranteed satisfactory.
